Y'all I'm so far behind, I never recapped April! And since my feed was doing wonky things in late April/early May, I figured it warranted a quick recap of both months! I finally was able to regroup a bit after the crowd of young adults left on Saturday... things will be a tad quieter here now, so I've been working on some new DIY ideas and gathering supplies for a couple of home projects (yay summertime!). But before we embark on June, let's … [Read more...]
Preschool Moms Tea… the “Decor”
Hi friends! We're in the midst of that frenetic slide into the end of the school year, both at home and work. All good, but how I manage to forget the craziness from year to year is beyond me. :-) Anyhoo, I thought I'd share some sweet pics from the "decor" of our Moms' Tea last week... such a wonderful celebration of motherhood and my preschool moms are always -- somehow -- the absolute BEST. The "books" on the tables … [Read more...]
Easter Brunch Menu
*Update: this post was set to go out yesterday, but my server went down unexpectedly... so now we're all the way to Thursday! Oh well... :) Wednesday already and Easter is almost upon us. In our home that means BRUNCH! You probably already know this, but I have experience feeding crowds and Easter has become one of my favorite holiday brunch occasions. Maybe it's that spring has *usually* sprung (don't ask me about that cold front that … [Read more...]
Easy Easter Brunch: 4 Ingredient Casserole Recipe!
Spring has sprung at last here in ATL! Woo hoo! And my thoughts are turning to Easter, a mere week away.

And one of the staples in that brunch spread is this easy 4 ingredient casserole that you can assemble the night before! Here's what you need... 1 and 1/2 lbs breakfast sausage (we like … [Read more...]
Easy Leprechaun Pie Treat
Hi friends! I don't normally pop in over the weekend, but I wanted to share this fun St Patrick's Day treat today so you'd have time to whip it up for tomorrow's festivities! I stumbled across this little gem on Oopsey Daisy blog three years ago and I've whipped it up for my preschoolers to enjoy every year since then. If you're not familiar with Alison's blog, she's got tons of kid-friendly activities and easy DIYs. She's not posted in quite … [Read more...]
Buffalo Chicken Dip {Super Bowl Perfect!}
Wow. Snowmaggeddon - snowpocalypse. Call it what you may, but we are in the deep freeze with a terrible traffic disaster on our hands. I'm sure you've seen it on Facebook if you're friends with any Southerners (especially Atlantans), but hear me when I say -- we were unprepared and unequipped, and many folks are still stranded in their cars. I could do a whole post on this, but I'll spare you. My 18 year old son was 6.5 hours enroute home … [Read more...]
Set the Table for a Christmas Coffee (and a Rug Giveaway!)
Much as I enjoy a festive evening party, one of my favorite ways to celebrate the season with close friends is a Christmas Coffee. I used to do this in conjunction with my Willow House business, but the simple formula works even better for a cozy get-together with a close pal or two. And ever since I spotted some adorable Christmas plates and mugs at Tuesday Morning, I've been itching to pull together a Christmas Coffee tablescape to share with … [Read more...]
Tasty Tailgate Treat: Baked Artichoke Dip
First of all, Y'ALL ROCK. SERIOUSLY. Our (in)Mercy Classroom Addition was fully funded by 3:30 yesterday afternoon. God is good and His mercy showed through each and every one of you that contributed in some way to this project. Look at these faces... these girls who will have opportunities anew now. I'm seriously in awe and so humbled to have shared the need and the story! There is more work to do for Mercy House … [Read more...]
